brubakes Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I thought it would be fun to start a thread talking about hobbies and other things everyone is into outside of the world of LaunchBox or emulation in general. Anyone have any fun hobbies? I'm a woodworker, beer brewer, and working on restoring an old military Jeep. 1 Quote

Rincewind Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Fishing or to be more precise fresh water fishing for carp.... Space, every time i watch a documentary i spend days thinking of it so i can see the grip it has Quote
kmoney Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I also collect sportscards as well. Mainly baseball and football. I usually collect for a while and then stop and pick it up again as I usually go through phases of nostalgia of things I did as a kid. I have probally did all the more popular hobbies at some point in my life. In addition to collecting sportscards I have also collected comic books and autographs, golf,fishing and the list goes on. 1 Quote

Edgar Hoover. I have Jimmy Carter,Bill Clinton,Donald Trump,George W. Bush,Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon autographs. I am not saying I am a fan or not of any of them or really collect for value as I am just a collector of autographs. Also I just happen to be at the right place at the right time to obtain them. 2 Quote
shadowdragon Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 I love astronomy as well and console collecting. I've collected some sports cards (mainly NHL), stamps, and old NASA pictures (Apollo/Voyager) in the past as well. Every now and then I like playing around with open source programs just to mess around and see what's in there. I've learned how to program some simple games since a kid as my mom (of all people) enjoyed typing code for games in a commodore 64 from a book she got in the late 80's early 90's . Well, maybe she didn't like typing the code, but enjoyed playing the games . I think I still have that book somewhere... Quote

You didn't have to clarify. I have a lot of video games I'm not a fan of. HahaSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk Quote
